I am freaking out over here! This is baby #3- my 2nd is not even 2 yrs old yet (2 at the end of May). And he still wakes up in the middle of the night for a sippy of milk. Every night I am waking up I keep getting hit with that reality of going back to the dark days of waking up all night long and starting over with diapers. I just feel like I was so close to the diaper finish line!

Anyone else panicking about "starting over"? I did read something about "third baby syndrome"... not sure if this is a common feeling or if I'm being realistic about my situation and have legit reasons to be stressing.

Is it chaos, yes haha but we pull together as a family and get everything done. This will be my last my hubby got a vasectomy about 2 weeks ago
My goal is to have the 2 year old potty trained before baby comes, wish me luck!
Our youngest starts preschool this summer and just when I thought freedom was mine... nope! Another little to keep me company every day, lol.
It was a complete surprise but now that I've had time to assimilate the news, I think it's perfect timing. My 3 will be close in age (5 and almost 3 when baby is born).
Now to get my butt in gear to meet some business goals before baby is born so our financial concerns disappear!

Our age gaps will be 4 years, 21 months and 24 months (we'll have an almost 8 year old, 3 1/2 year old, and 2 year old).
I've told multiple people that we we're talking about #3 being our last and have not been shy about how much #3vhas stretched me to my limits....so yeah....having to eat my words now.
I was freaking out initially and still get legitimate mad when DH laughs at how awful I feel. But I'm reading a book call Dream Birth and today I decided to visualize my little pea-sized baby and I talked to her. I told her I love her. That's she's wanted. That I want her to keep growing string and healthy. It was the most peaceful I've felt about this pregnancy and reminded me that although this will likely be quite the challenge it will also be a blessing.
That being said I'm making sure DH schedules his vasectomy for right after the baby's birth.
It is crazy but it's also wonderful. Your capacity for...everything...will grow but don't feel bad if you feel like you need to lean on others a lot more than you have in the past. Its normal and healthy.
